Why couples love the Brisbane Registry Office
I’ve photographed over 130 weddings at the registry so I know how the day flows, where to find the best local photography spots outside and how to keep the whole experience easy and fun. I love it for couples who are wanting to be intentional about spending the day with their loved ones, whether that’s just you two, or a small group of your nearest family and friends.
And with so many gorgeous spots right outside the door, we can capture the city skyline, stunning parklands and everything in between. If you’re a little camera shy, no worries at all, I like to keep things natural, easy and pressure free so you can just relax and enjoy your day.
Bonus tip: If you’re wanting to elope or have no guests attending, Sean and I are more than happy to act as your witnesses. We’ve done it a lot and love being a part of the moment. Just let me know when you book so I can make sure we’re both free to sign on the day.
Kids can make a wedding day extra special and full of character. There’s something magical about seeing a child holding their parent’s hand as they walk down the aisle, giggling during the ceremony or posing in their cute little outfits.
I love capturing candid details and sweet moments like this. If you are bringing children to your wedding day, I will always make time for some relaxed and natural images of you with them too.
Many of these photos become the most precious of all, as they show your wedding day just as it was, full of love and laughter.
